Has anyone yet figured out why they felt the need to come up with a signature ability for a shitmon, one which it can only have 50% of the time, and one which they only gave it a generation after its debut?
>>59363745*a terrible signature ability
>>59363745Does he get Skill Swap? If he does, then they were throwing him a bone with Stall. If not, idk.
Because they didn't think of it during Gen III?
>>59363902Okay, but>What about Sableye and only Sableye justifies it getting this ability? It's not like Regigigas where it is feasible that they thought it needed to be nerfed, because it's a shitmon>What about Sableye justified giving it this ability only half of the time?
This would be a cool ability for other faster bulky guys to fill a wobuffet role
>>59363749Didn't get it until gen 9 lmaoThe only reason I can think of is for Payback, but it doesn't justify it for memaybe there's some lore reason? or they just forgot to give it other Pokemon
>>59363745>one of our shillmons is failing>make it even worse so we can get the contrarian audience
>>59363745>ShitmonRETARD
>>59364349Sableye is my favourite but it is objectively a shitmon until Gen 5 comes along
>Sableye is making vp seethe latelyRemember to git gud.

See Fire–Water–Grass.Sableye (and Spiritomb) was the only Pokemon without a weakness. Therefore, "cheating" the type chart.Therefore, Atodashi/Stall is evidently, a language joke ability based on Sableye's not having a thing that beats it.
